About Linda & Marc

We both grew up with pets but have just fallen under the spell of those lovely felines. Lucy and Ethel, Himalayans, were our most recent owners. Having to let them go after 17 years was heartbreaking. We miss the daily grooming, their independent nature and affection that we gladly shared with them. As for the humans, Marc is from Montreal and speaks French, Spanish and English. I am originally from New York, but we met in California. I knew Marc was right for me, the first time we met, when "the girls" walked right up to him and demanded his attention. While Marc has now chosen to work as a real estate agent, I retired in January and we both care for our home in Florida. We look forward to caring for your home and to taking direction from you cats.
Why we want to house sit
Because we love to travel, enjoy new experiences and cats, we know this is a perfect fit for us. Having lived in Central America for almost 9 years we know how rewarding learning about different lifestyles and cultures can be. We want to see our own countries as well as others. We would love to do it all while providing loving care to your valued family member and peace of mind while you enjoy your own experiences.
Our experience
We have been owned by cats all of our lives . Marc has extensive experience as an engineer in high rise buildings. We have owned a travel agency, traveled extensively and have lived in Central America where we had house sitting & pet sitting experience.

Linda and Marc were excellent cat sitters. They were very comfortable with our cats as soon as they met them, and they sent us a picture with MJ sitting on Linda's lap! They communicate well, they left our home spotless, and they even bought us flowers and a lovely card. We highly recommend them ...

Max, my big laid-back boy, took to Marc straight away. Maggie, my head-strong and talkative little girl, was very comfortable with both of them. They left my home as they had found it and my cats happy and well fed.
Although we were only away for 3-days, they kept in touch and sent us pictures of happy kitties!
I’d be more than happy to recommend this delightful and organised couple, to anyone!- Organised

Linda and I grew up together and our friendship has spanned decades! Both she and Marc are very responsible and trustworthy individuals. They are homeowners themselves and have had many pets over the years. I would gladly recommend them to be your trusted housesitter.

We didn't have to worry about a thing when we had Linda to take care of our pets and home. They loved her and didn't want her to leave. We highly recommend Linda for all your pet sitting needs.

We have been close friends with Marc and Linda for over 7 years, having met when we were all living in Central America. They both enjoyed spending time with our rescue kitty named CAT when we lived outside of the us. They are honest, caring, reliable and loving. Their love of cats is clearly evidenced through the artwork and photos of their beloved furbabies adorning the walls of their home. When walking with Marc and Linda they cannot help themselves - if they spy a cat, they will invariably make a new furfriend! We cannot recommend them highly enough - if you are looking for someone to love and care for your cat as though it were their own you will find no one better than Marc and Linda.
